As far as I am concerned, the only problem with Birds of Prey was that is should have just been called Harley Quinn, because it was her movie. Also releasing it in February was not particularly wise, but had it been held to Summer, it would have been thrown to streaming. That actually might have been better for its…

It was Lorelei, played by Elena Satine in two episodes of Season 1. The IMDB knows all. I think that they may have pitched Amora the Enchantress, but were only allowed to use Lorelei.

Well, wonder no more.

Spider-Man: Home Goods  (“Peter is on the run and goes into hiding as a salesperson at a discount home furnishings store” It’s terrible, but Disney makes up the box office shortcoming with product placement fees.)

Now I dearly wish that someone would make Chappie 2: Chap that Ass just so that a movie could exist with that title. It is a delight.
I have never seen Chappie.
I am guessing that is bad.
Is District 9 the only good movie that Neil Blomkamp has ever made?

As someone who lives in Manhattan, no it isn’t. Certain areas like Midown and the Financial District are quiet mostly because their working population are working from home. Obviously, Times Square is empty, but the residential neighborhoods are well populated. is it like it was in the before times? Of course not, but…

um, so what is the deal with Barry’s dad in the show then? How does one actor play both roles?

I mean, yes, but it is not a motif that is unique to the show. I have been noticing it everywhere in real life recently, because it is a centuries old design element. It occurs in nature all over the place. Clearly, they are playing it up on the show, but it isn’t as hard as you think to find it ready made for them to…

There’s no need to address it directly. As has been mentioned, it technically happened during the blip, so it is no longer current. Are we going to be going on and on about it two years after it is completely over? (And it will be completely over one day, dammit!!).

That’s Academy Award Nominee Marky Mark to you, sir.

Not the image I was expecting. I’ll reserve judgement, but EYEBROWS?!

It’s easy. Dwayne Johnson has been wanting to make Black Adam for years. Warner Brothers needs a hit DC Comics movie, and Johnson is one of the world’s biggest box office stars. Is he the right actor to play Black Adam? Should a person of Samoan descent be playing a character whose origin remains vaguely Middle…

There is this place called TJMaxx . . .

You never know. He might surprise you, like by having Merlin get impaled or decapitated within the first 5 minutes of the movie.

I am guessing that this conversation took place just before the whole Whedon discussion blew up. This is not a defense of him, but it also seems clear that different actors’ mileage varied greatly with him. He also gave immeasurable career boosts to numerous actors. Some of them, like Charisma Carpenter in particular,…

Let’s be clear that Gina Carano created this mess.

Ming-Na Wen and B.D. Wong are great additions to any voice cast, but OVER-talented? What’s that supposed to mean? Are you saying they deserve better? It looks to me like they scored a sweet gig, which I would imagine they are both pretty happy about.

It’s worth noting that Nicole Kidman shot this movie before she was considered to be much more than an up and coming starlet married to Tom Cruise. She may have already made To Die For, the movie that really elevated her career, but it hadn’t yet been released. Luckily her appearance in this movie is so innocuous…

Totally accidental. “Oops, my change fell out of my pocket.”

If she’s just helplessly being mind-controlled and is in the sway of some hidden Big Bad, though, I’m going to hate it, as I want Wanda to have full agency in what’s going on and not end up just being some damsel who needs help.
